Forum linking and new windows

I just changed the linking behavior on the forum so that when you click a link it opens in the same browser window now and doesn't open a new window.

That makes the linking behavior consistent across the whole site, and it's better for usability across different browsers.

Here are some useful shortcuts for people who like to open links in different ways. They work in Firefox, and possibly in other browsers also:

How to open a link in a new window:
Right-click on the link and press the "w" key when the context menu appears. Alternately, click on the menu item Open Link in New Window.

How to open a link in a new tab:
Middle-click on a link with the mouse. If you don't have a mouse, hold down the Ctrl-key and left-click on the link. If you're on a Mac, it's not the Ctrl key, but one of the other control keys near the Ctrl key (I forget which one).
